I have been loving the new Superhero show on the CW network, Arrow. It is truly a remarkable achievement, considering the last live-action superhero show was The Cape. If you haven't been watching Arrow yet, please start soon.One of the reasons for its sucess has to be because it has been starting off slow. Arrow, while featuring DC comics characters, making use of a major conspiracy, that only Oliver Queen can destroy. That kind of slow, arc-driven kind of story-telling has become quite popular over the years and it's good to see it used here.Another great aspect of the show is the constant drumbeat of DC characters making a cameo in the show. Everyone from Deathstroke to recently Count Vertigo, it seems that the writers understand the history of Green Arrow and the DCU and want to make it apart of this TV series. To be sure, the characters are altered from their Comics origins, but at least they are a part of the newest continuity. The only complaint I have on this use is that in Arrow, they happen to be killed off by the end of the episode. Aside from the problem of having a superhero kill with such regularity, I just doesn't seem right that Arrow's rogue gallery is being so easily disposed of.To sum up. Watch this show.And as Always, Enjoy.

It has been an unconscionable length of time for me to speak to you. And I have a confession to make. For the past few months, during the Holiday Season, I have been progressing slowing on the lates Tale of Ubernorden. Unfortunatley, I got halfway through the first draft of the story when I realized that I had know idea how to finish it in any conceivably decent fashion. Now, I realize that I am hardly writing on par with Shakespeare, but I like to think I make decent enough endings that make some sense. I just can't really do that with this story.So I have decided to put that story on hiatus and start a new one. I really don't like this option. I like this story and see it as the kind of story that changes the artform as we know it. But with out a proper way to end it, I just can't publish it at this time. What this means for you, however, is that I won't be able to submit a new story for your enjoyment by the end of February, since I am starting a new story from scratch. Still, there is much to enjoy already here on this site. So...As always, Enjoy.
